Kumbe Gifts Were On Loan

So we recently “broke up” but technically it was more of a situationship. We were talking for around 6 months, celebrated monthly anniversaries, exchanged gifts intentionally from both sides, all that soft life stuff 😭

The breakup happened and honestly I don’t blame her. Sometimes things just happen and maybe not everything is meant to last. I have accepted that part.

Now the funny part is… she’s requesting all the gifts back

At first I almost said “should I also ask for mine back?” but nikasema achana nayo. Since then it’s been nonstop texts, calls from different numbers, even after blocking her and most of her circle. Every day it’s “how can I get my gifts back?”

At this point I’m not even angry anymore, I am just laughing at the situation. I’ll probably just return the stuff for peace of mind and move on.

But genuine question for discussion:

When gifts are exchanged in a relationship/situationship, do people actually expect them back after things end?

Sometimes we do need to change in order to be loved, to allow ourselves to be loved. Sometimes we ourselves are the toxic ones.
